I don't think you are missing anything. As long as the *version* of a
Python module is the same for Python 2 and Python 3, then it makes sense
to have them in a single package or SlackBuild. As I mentioned in my
other email, there are rare cases where this isn't possible: IPython
won't go above 5.x for Python 2 but is on 7.x for Python 3.
Otherwise, keeping them together is usually the way to go.
